Cause For Continuous Headache?

I have been getting cramps/sharp pains in my head for quite some time. Each pain only lasts a couple seconds at a time. It used to happen occasionally, then it escalated to daily, and now it is all day everyday (usually about once an hour). I've tried a number of things to stop them. I stopped drinking coffee, stopped eating chocolate, visit the chiropractor for regular adjustments (which seemed to reduce the pain), I've been eating healthier (organic/free range), I'm taking magnesium / prenatal supplements, I keep stress levels down. I'm currently breastfeeding, so I drink plenty of water. I still wake up during the night to feed my baby daughter (so sleep quality is not great), however I nap with her during the day and I was getting these headaches before she was born also. Although I can handle the pain, it is driving me crazy that I don't know why it's happening.
